The Last Art Class & a Day at Marcia's Studio

Our third assignment for the last class was a portrait which the instructor thought was "difficult" because of the eyeglasses. I thought they were easy and had loads of trouble with the nose which I never thought I got right. Then at the end of the last class our wonderful instructor let us pick one of his drawings as a gift. I liked this portait of a ferret. Thankfully I picked an easy one as our class exercise was to take about 20 minutes and begin drawing it.

Today was a relaxing day at Marcia's wonderful studio with sewing friends. I completed a top using hand woven blue ikat fabric from Northern Thailand and two molas from Panama. I head for the islands for more molas next week so this uses up a couple from my stash.

Linda Bachman made a start on a wonderful looking piece made from hand dyed shibori.
